Apparently R125s don't crash very well :lol:

[iMark]

Just been around to the garage and seen this in the workshop..
Some kid went down on a roundabout apparently, must of been quite hard to snap exhaust hanger bracket and the brake lever clamp straight off the clip on, either that or Yamaha are using really shit bracket parts for the R125 lol


Had to remove pics sorry !

Same problems on the same side when i had my accident on my old r125.

Hit the side of the car head on, i went up n over, the bike apparently went up on its nose momentarily then 'flopped' on its side no harder than accidently dropping it - entire right side was fucked, everything bent or snapped. Woman had a whopping great big bill for replacing each and every little bit in the end as we did it outside insurance.

Cheese n pastry parts i'm inclined to think.

There's a couple parked in my street during the week.

They look like they're made of the same stuff that they make plastic cutlery with.

Madness's crashed pretty well after he decided to try and KD his 300 mile old first bike

Monged the rear brake lever up pretty good, but we had that off & bent it straight again fairly easily. Then again it is a full faired bike and if you crash/drop anything with a fairing you are going to get slipped one in the gary for the cost of repairs. Nakeds with engine bars & massive screens are the way forwards.

Mechanically mine was faultless i'd agree there, and performance wise for a 125 it was decent. Not sure about the price tag though, on new ones anyway - i think they just ramp it up as its one of the very few 'cool' 125s that 'everyone wants' so a lot of people with rich parents will ask for it no matter what, and they milk it.

By the look of his tyres the rider hadn't choose the best time of year to push his limits. Probably finally got some use of his sliders though...and scraped a foot peg

That ain't the bad, my mate t boned a van on his. The front was just gone and the forks bent so far the wheel was basically under the engine lol

As per the above - often a fast crash may not be so bad, as it hasn't got as far to fall; while a slower crash with the bike upright will see more momentum on the way down.

They are cheap and easy to fix..

It's a lot cheaper to repair yourself or with you paying a garage than it is if insurance is footing the bill.
